PhD Programs in Education Administration 2024

Graduates with a degree in school administration often go on to become school principals, district administrators or supervisors, deans of students or faculty, university registrars or college provosts. School administrators are employed in every level of education from preschools to universities.

The PhD is a doctoral degree, specifically called a "doctor of philosophy" degree. This is misleading because PhD holders are not necessarily philosophers (unless they earned their degree in philosophy!). That said, PhD recipients are able to engage in thought experiments, reason about problems, and solve problems in sophisticated ways.
